have to get the ammo dug up, that's in the back yard, while it is still dark, just in case.

wow how did this thread get dug up out of the grave? whichever way it goes, bush is giving a concert/election party in front of the capital tomorrow afternoon. free music, sure, jimmy vaughn isn't anywhere near as good as stevie ray was, but still, for free? plus i can play spot the secret service agent. and also, i know theres plans for protestors if he wins. they're going to dress in black and try to interupt his victory speech, if thats how it ends up. i figure if he wins i get to see some fireworks. if not, they'll probably be there anyway.

Well, the way I see it, (7:45 PM CST) about this time or perhaps a bit earlier tommorow, when G.W.B. is declared the winner by a larger than predicted margin, and Al Gwhore crawls back into a hole somewhere, I will probably come here and "lurk" around to find TS and a few others "whining" about how it went and who's to blame! I shall try very hard to restain from any "I told You So's Etc." and hope that all this will wind down before the weekend! Sorry Guys.........Gore Just REALLY SUCKS!!!!!!:)

I wonder how late tomorrow we'll know for sure? If the race is truly that close it may take some time to count up everything and declare an official winner. I'd hate to see the election officials &quot;botch it&quot;, claim one party won when a recount later shows another party won. :)

JellyBaby,

Many of the races will be close, but not the Presidential. Bore loses by seven points.

Don't blame Nader, blame Gore for alienating those that would vote normally vote Democratic, but voted Green instead.

<< also give Clinton the nod for giving me the best economic times of my life in these last 8 years>>

And that, in short, summs up idiotic liberals voting for Gore: Clinton no more 'gave you' the best economic times in your life than the person next to you in an airplane keeps you up in the air by holding on to the seat very tightly. The economy has done great DESPITE the actions of Gore/Clinton -- not because of them. They were just along for the ride as new technology exploded and drove the economy.

Whether or not Reagan, Bush Sr. or Clinton had any affect on the economy is mute. The point is once we start assigning credit for the nation's hard work to politicians, we effectively start the slide into socialism. Oh crap, people are doing this already! :(

Sorry Brandon, but Gore's already lost. This election is just a formality to make it official.
